After Liu Qingshan heard this, he pondered for a while, and then said: Go back, General Hibitt, it should be said that your plan is still feasible. In this case, you call General Barras at once, and we will study the specific battle plan at once. After all, you, as the commander-in-chief of the Navy and Air Force, are primarily responsible for the military operations of the Navy and Air Force. However, after the successful landing of our main combat force, the ground operations were mainly under the specific command of General Barras. Therefore, some of the most concrete courses of action must be approved by General Barras. "

After hearing this, General Hibbit nodded, and then said, "Commander-in-chief, you are thinking very mid-range. Well, now I'll bring General Barras over right away. Now, he should be further reorganizing our Wild Lion series combat troops. In the past few days, he has been very busy with this matter alone, because after suffering from the other side's aerial bombardment, it should be said that in all aspects, it has caused a bad impact on our main force in ground operations. Fortunately, General Ballas is an expert in this area, so I think there should not be many problems after General Ballas's rectification. "

After saying this, General Hibit turned around and soon left Liu Qingshan's operational headquarters. At this moment, Liu Qingshan stood in front of that military map, staring at that military map again, and fell into deep thought. It was not known all night what it was about, although now, through careful planning, it finally got its wish, destroying the enemy's two air bases in one fell swoop, and it should be said that this will be very beneficial to its next military operation. But now, Liu Qingshan. Always worried, he always felt that things were not so simple.

Soon after, General Barras and General Hibbit, two people came to Liu Qingshan side by side this time. Liu Qingshan glanced at these two of his right-hand men and couldn't help but be very pleased. It should be said that all this time, it was these two generals on their left and right sides, in front of the saddle and behind the horse, who effectively carried out their orders and achieved victory after victory. If it weren't for them, no matter how good he was, he wouldn't have achieved what he is today.

Seeing that General Ballas had finally come to him, Liu Qingshan stood up, walked in front of him, glanced General Ballas up and down, and then continued: "General Ballas, you guy, you are very busy listening to General Silbit. And it's very productive. It's no wonder that for so many years, you have been running our main ground combat force, and it should be said that you are familiar with them. Well, now, I think we are almost ready, and the losses caused by the enemy's aerial bombardment of us not long ago should be almost eliminated by now. "

When General Barras heard this, he had a smile on his face, and he knew this guy at a glance, and it seemed that he was in a very good mood. He gave Liu Qingshan a standard military salute, and then replied categorically: "Report to the commander-in-chief, after more than ten days of rectification, our Wild Lion Series Heavy Tank Combat Corps has returned to its former state in all aspects, especially in terms of mental outlook. Ready to meet any challenge. Please rest assured, commander-in-chief. "

At this time, Liu Qingshan glanced at General Barras, and then said to him jokingly: "General Baras, I think, is fully prepared. However, here, I still want to remind you that this battle is extraordinary. Because before that, the ground combat forces you commanded, basically, were all on the continent and had a relatively solid strategic rear. But this time, it was completely different from the previous battle situation.

"This is mainly reflected in the fact that we are going to carry out an unprecedented scale of beach-grabbing landing operations. In such a situation, our main combat forces on the ground will be deployed in large numbers on the island of Ariana, and, on the one hand, we will face a well-prepared adversary. Because the other side must have built very strong fortifications near their coastline, and I have a feeling that the enemy is absolutely very strong in defending that Ariana Island. Even, exceeded our expectations.

"So, in this situation, we have to be fully prepared, both mentally and militarily. In addition, we have an even greater difficulty, that is, due to the large number of combat troops that carried out the beach-rushing landing this time, almost all of the main combat forces on the side of our ironclad God of War interstellar team. Therefore, a large logistical supply is definitely required. In this case, relying only on sea transportation is completely unable to meet the needs of them. Therefore, we must build a logistical supply center on the island of Ariana. However, this will greatly limit the mobility and flexibility of our combat units. In this way, Ye Xiu has brought great difficulty to our overall operation. You have to take into account all of these things. ”

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

After hearing this, General Baras's face, which had just looked very excited, seemed to become a little solemn. He knew that what the commander-in-chief Liu Qingshan said was very reasonable. And there are a lot of things that he really hasn't taken into account so far. For until then, his attention had been focused on the restoration of the comprehensive combat capability of his combat units.

Because before that, after suffering the enemy's heavy bombardment, it was true that the main force of ground combat under his command suffered huge losses. Whether it is in terms of soldiers, equipment, or morale, they have all been affected by Yan zhòng. For a period of time, he has devoted almost all of his energy to this. As for the next one to carry out this beach-grabbing landing operation, to be honest, he didn't think too much about it.

However, after listening to Liu Qingshan's remarks, General Barras was like an initiation, and he had a further understanding of the upcoming beach-grabbing landing operation. Immediately, General Barras thought for a moment, and then said: "Commander-in-chief, I just thought a lot of things when I stopped going out of the city. Indeed, as you said, it is indeed a challenge for us to conduct such a large-scale corps operation without solid logistical supplies. Because before that, we really didn't have a precedent like that. I think I will definitely study the specific combat plan in depth. However, in these aspects, I am a layman after all, and I don't have much experience, I don't know, you and General Hibbit should be experts in planting, and I am really willing to listen to your opinions and suggestions more. ”

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

After hearing this, Liu Qingshan nodded slightly. It should be said that it was quite satisfied with General Barras's attitude. This proves that this general of Barras has not always been arrogant and arrogant, as he was before, and lacks practical and effective knowledge and understanding of the battlefield.

Then, Liu Qingshan smiled and nodded to General Hibbit, signaling that he could tell his own battle plan. When General Hibit saw it, he stood up, then walked up to the military map, and said in a loud voice: "Commander-in-chief, General Barras." Now, since the commander-in-chief has made me commander-in-chief of the Navy and Air Force, I would like to state my main responsibilities and some specific observations and observations on this battle. First of all, in order to destroy the enemy's unknown defensive line near the coastline, I intend to concentrate all our long-range heavy battleships, which should be at least thirteen, and fire at the same time, and deliver a fierce long-range attack on the enemy's defensive fire points near the coastline.

"Then, on this basis, we will first of all the infantry combat forces, through guò troop carriers, to carry out beach-grabbing landing operations. Strive to occupy a beachhead as much as possible, and immediately build fortifications, always ready to meet the enemy's repetition. On this basis, as long as we can hold the beachhead and resist the enemy's frantic counterattack, then, in two hours, we can build our logistics supply center on the beachhead. In this way, we will be able to transport our Lion series heavy battle tanks to the islands one after another. As a result, we will further improve our defense and strengthen our comprehensive combat capability.

After General Hibbit said this, he glanced at Liu Qingshan and General Barras, and then, turning around, walking twice on the ground with his hands behind his back, muttering for a long time, and then said: "Commander-in-chief, General Ballas, according to this battle plan, the link I am most worried about is not whether we can successfully land on the beach. With the long-range strike capability of our existing surface warships, coupled with the cooperation of our air force's combat forces, I think it is not a problem to complete the beach-grabbing landing operation.

"The crux of the matter is whether we can withstand the frantic counterattack of the enemy after the successful landing on the beach. For us, after all, this is far away from the base camp logistics supply center, if the enemy has a large number of the most powerful ground combat forces, then, we want to defend the enemy's crazy counterattack, it is indeed more difficult.

"Although we have the long-range artillery support of a very strong surface combat force, after all, once we are engaged in a head-to-head exchange by the enemy, the two sides will be mixed up, so our long-range fire strikes will not be able to play to their due advantages. However, if we can't push back on the enemy side, then we won't be able to build our field supply centers in a smooth way. It can be said that if all of our land supply centers can be built smoothly, then it means that this beach-grabbing landing operation can only be declared a failure. ”

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

Subsequently, General Hibbit then added: "Commander-in-chief, General Baras, although I say that this operational concept of mine is more pessimistic, more cautious, and more low-key, in fact, I have really stated the most worrying issue, the most strict problem, and the most critical link. I hope we can continue to discuss this link. ”

When General Barras heard this, he thought for a moment, then smiled, and continued, "General Hibbit, don't worry. I admit that relying only on our infantry combat forces, even after the successful landing on the beach, it is indeed very difficult to hold back the heavy tank combat corps on the enemy's side. However, can we take the lead in transporting our Wild Lion series heavy tank combat cluster to the beachhead, so that at least in the face of the enemy's armored fighting vehicle combat cluster, we will not be in a too passive position. ”

When General Hibbit heard this, he waved his hand at General Barras and said, "General Barras, things are not as simple as you say. You must know that our Wild Lion series heavy tanks, relying only on our current troop carriers, it can be said that it is difficult to transport them to the beachhead in a short period of time. I don't think the enemy side will give us enough time to deliver all the heavy tanks to the beach. According to my preliminary calculations, it will take at least two days for us to transport all the heavy tanks of the Lion series to Haicheng.

"In this case, General Barras, what does two days mean for this beach-grabbing landing operation? Therefore, it is certain that under the existing conditions, it is absolutely impossible for us to deliver our armored combat vehicle combat corps to the beachhead in a short time. In this way, in the face of the dispersal of the enemy's forces, we can only rely on the combat forces of those infantry to fight them.

"In that case, General Barras, this also means that after the successful landing on the beach, the combat force you command can only be the infantry combat force. There's no way around it. Therefore, the difficulty of this beach-grabbing landing operation seems to be here in the long distance. ”

－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－－

General Barras did feel a little disappointed when he heard this. Because all along, the ground combat forces under his command have basically used heavy tanks as their main combat force every time. And those infantry combat forces of their own, in a large way, can only be used as auxiliary combat units.

But now, after the successful landing on the beach, he can only command those infantry combat units to carry out defensive operations, to be honest, this feeling makes him a little unable to turn around for a while. However, after listening to General Hibbit's remarks just now, General Ballas had to admit that General Hibbit's analysis was very reasonable.

Immediately, General Barras sighed and said nothing more. For a while, the atmosphere in the entire combat headquarters seemed a little depressing. After Liu Qingshan saw this, he stood up, walked to the window, looked at the hazy moonlight outside the window, and did not speak for a long time. However, in his heart, there was one thing. It is very clear that it will be very difficult to withstand the frenzied heavy tank counterattack of the enemy with only those infantry combat units.

Moreover, just as General Hibbit analyzed, once the two sides are in a scuffle, it will be difficult for their own long-range artillery strikes to play a role. Even if it is its own air combat force, it is also difficult to play a role. Because their attack is completely the kind of attack that belongs to the indiscriminate city. Unless it is absolutely necessary, it will never use this kind of suicide attack.

Is there really no other way? Liu Qingshan kept walking back and forth on the ground with his hands behind his back, thinking quickly. Suddenly, he had an idea and immediately connected to the headquarters of the naval base in the middle of Moon Bay. Then, he asked sharply, "Is it the Moon Bay Naval Base Command?" I'm Liu Qingshan, I'm Liu Qingshan. What is the matter of the aircraft carrier that you have developed? ”

Soon, from the other end of the long-range communication system, a reply came from the naval base in Moon Bay: "Report to the commander-in-chief, now, just two hours ago, we have just completed the test of the aircraft carrier. Commander-in-chief, according to our test situation, now, it is certain that the attack capability of this kind of aircraft carrier that we have just developed is quite good! The farthest attack radius can reach 800 kilometers! In this way, it will be a powerful supplement to our air strike force! ”

"Okay, okay, it's so timely! Hahahaha~~~" At this time, after hearing the answer from Moon Bay, Liu Qingshan almost couldn't close his mouth! He really didn't expect that his own one at the Moon Bay Air Base would be tested so quickly, the kind of aircraft carrier that Mr. Pitt and Mei Ting had just developed!
